source: sasview/run.py @ 29eb947

#!/usr/bin/env python
"""
Run sasview in place.  This allows sasview to use the python
files in the source tree without having to call setup.py install
first.  A rebuild is still necessary when working on sas models
or c modules.

Usage:

./run.py [(module|script) args...]

Without arguments run.py runs sasview.  With arguments, run.py will run
the given module or script.
